Must I do it?
I mutter to
My sheets
I don’t want to surrender

I mutter to
The wind
I don’t want to surrender
To the unforgiving cold world

The wind
Calls me out
To the unforgiving cold world
There is work to be done.

 

The warm embrace of
My sheets
Pulls me tight
Must I do it?

I was inspired to write this when I woke up and didn't want to get out of bed.
